I'm not disagreeing with you at all - but it's the honesty of the government I was talking about! They already have a bad record in that area, and I'm cynical about the ability of cronies in power to hush things up and manipulate what we're allowed to see. Especially if each side has information about the other that said "other" would rather keep hidden - it concentrates the mind wonderfully. And I cannot believe there were no banker/politician bedfellows (I realise I'm not telling you anything you weren't already well aware of).

Still, the shite has so spectacularly hit the fan this time that maybe they'll have nowhere left unsplattered to hide... now that we're answerable to outside forces... with the world & the blogosphere watching...
